Day 31 - More shoulder spacers


(Originally posted on September 18th, 2013)


I decided to go with the M. Barnwell oil seal option.  Casting all the seals would be costly and time-consuming, and the electrical wire solution that I cited in a previous post looks to be expensive, as well.  A roll of that stuff is pricey (at least, according to what I found for sale at Lowe's).  So, if I'm going to spend a lot regardless, might as well go for the genuine article!  My wallet will soon be £87.00 lighter, all in the sake of ...AUTH-EN-TI-CI-TY!

So, I ordered my oil seals from them yesterday (shipped from Birmingham, UK), and they already freaking arrived today!  In Seattle, WA!  I can't believe that speed!  Wibbly-wobbly, indeed.


Otherwise, not a lot to report on work-wise, except that I started putting on the lower spacers.  I'll see if you can identify the mistake I made!  It's totally correctable, so I'm not bovvered.
